Dr. Tarantino is very thorough in his examination

I switched from another HHC provider to Dr. Tarantino. The original doc was aloof and kept cancelling appointments. Dr. Tarantino is a provider I had used 20 years ago and didn't think to search him out initially for this problem until I did an MedAlly search for a new doc.

Most of my visit with the doctor was with him so, everything went very smoothly.

Other Reviews from Around the Web

5 out of 5 stars

Dr Tarantino is an excellent and very humanly/emotionally available MD. He is kind, compassionate, and highly competent. After years of him being my Urologist I would recommend him, without reservation, to anyone needing an exceptional physician involving urology.

5 out of 5 stars

A very convenient utility for a consultation that saves time and I believe is as effective as an office visit. The doc presented the available options that I will follow up with toward any future treatment for the vagaries of prostate cancer.
